The Holocaust Legacy Partner Project to preserve the memory of the Holocaust.
As “guardians” of The Holocaust who bear the responsibility that the world never
forget, we find ourselves at a time in history when soon, due to the inevitability
of human mortality, there will be no more survivors to provide first hand eyewitness
testimony. A highly successful program called Holocaust Legacy Partners had been
created and implemented to ensure our survivors place in history. Survivors are partnered
with dedicated individuals to carry forward the most intimate details of their Holocaust
Experience so that their personal memories and histories can continue in perpetuity.
Second and Third Generations of Holocaust survivors, educators, or anyone interested
in becoming a part of this vital project should call The Holocaust Center at 978-

Sonia Schreiber Weitz
Upstander Award
The Holocaust Center, Boston North is now accepting applications for the Sonia Schreiber Weitz Upstander Award. Two students in grades 7 – 12 will be recognized at the awards ceremony at Yom HaShoah, the Interfaith Commemoration of the Holocaust 7:00 PM on April 23, 2012, at Peabody Veterans Memorial High School.
The award is named for Holocaust survivor, Sonia Schreiber Weitz, who passed away on June 23, 2010. Sonia was a poet, author, and spokesperson for her generation who put a face on Holocaust history. A remarkable woman who became a role model for the generations after, she was beloved by everyone who had the privilege of hearing her share her experiences during the Holocaust. Her mission was to encourage others to apply the lessons of the past to the present.
“I dream of a world without victims and victimizers,
and even more, without bystanders.”
The award recipients must emulate Sonia’s commitment to making our world a better place by demonstrating that they are not bystanders but upstanders who have taken action on behalf of another against prejudice, hatred, or indifference. There are unlimited opportunities to be an upstander. Two examples of an upstander include but are not limited to an individual who has helped someone being bullied or has stopped untrue or harmful messages from spreading.
